All that I give is given to myself.

* Because THAT is how God gives and WE ARE OF GOD.

1. Today’s idea, completely alien to the ego and the thinking of the world, is crucial to the thought reversal that this course will bring about.

* This course or journey that the Course inspires will lead you to the reversal of separation from God and your source of existence, peace, joy, freedom, happiness, and power.

* I HAVE “ARRIVED THERE.” It is possible in this lifetime.

²If you believed this statement, there would be no problem in complete forgiveness, certainty of goal, and sure direction.

³You would understand the means by which salvation comes to you, and would not hesitate to use it now.

2. Let us consider what you do believe, in place of this idea.

²It seems to you that other people are apart from you, and able to behave in ways which have no bearing on your thoughts, nor yours on theirs.

³Therefore, your attitudes have no effect on them, and their appeals for help are not in any way related to your own.

⁴You further think that they can sin without affecting your perception of yourself, while you can judge their sin, and yet remain apart from condemnation and at peace.
